My Review:
I finished this book about 5 days ago so it is harder to get my thoughts in order for a proper review. I loved this book. It has jumped into first place for my favorite book by her.
Eden has a lending library that she runs from her home. Levi is a blacksmith with a tarnished past. Will Eden be able to see beyond his past to the man he has become?
Words to describe this book: multilayered.
Sweet.
Tender.
Deep.
Emotional.
Romantic.
Swoon-worthy hero.
It does not have as much humor as her other books, but it has a lot of heart.
This was the first book that I have listened to by this narrator, but she did an incredible job!!
★★★★★/5
Synopsis (from Goodreads):
Do They Have a Fighting Chance at Love?
After
completing his sentence for the unintentional crime that derailed his
youthful plans for fame and fortune, Levi Grant looks to start over in
the town of Spencer, Texas. Spencer needs a blacksmith, a trade he
learned at his father's knee, and he needs a place where no one knows
his past.
Eden Spencer has sworn off men, choosing instead to
devote her time to the lending library she runs in the town her father
founded. When a mountain-sized stranger walks through her door and asks
to borrow a book, she's reluctant to trust him. Yet as the mysteries of
the town's new blacksmith unfold, Eden discovers hidden depths in him
that tempt her heart.
Eden believes she's finally found a man of
honor and integrity. But when the truth about Levi's prodigal past comes
to light, can this tarnished hero find a way to win back the
librarian's affections?
I'm moving this one up to the top of my TBR list!
ReplyDeleteYAY! Let me know what you think of it!
DeleteI'd rather have a lot of heart than a lot of humor. Wonderful review, Cindy.
